Rivers Crises: Gov Fubara holds emergency meeting with security chiefs

Siminalayi Fubara, Governor of Rivers State, has convened a security council meeting with chiefs of security services in response to recent political developments.

The meeting took place behind closed doors on Tuesday at the Government House in Port Harcourt.

After the meeting, Governor Fubara told the press that discussions with the security heads centred on strategies to contain the invasion of local government secretariats.

He cautioned the immediate past council chairmen against harbouring false hopes of returning to their positions.

Governor Fubara, however, raised an alarm over an alleged plan by his opponents to arrest his supporters.

He pledged to personally protect them, saying anyone attempting such arrests would have to confront him first.

More details shortly.
